Adrian Journet, 31, was found dead from multiple gunshot wounds inside a hotel room at 11230 Southwest Freeway in Houston on September 26, 2021. Paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene after the shooting, which occurred around 2:10 a.m. The initial suspect fled before police arrived and was described as a black male with short hair.

Police identified 23-year-old Charles White-Green as the suspect and later charged him with murder. White-Green surrendered to authorities on October 4, 2021, after turning himself in with the assistance of community activist Quanell X. A woman at the scene told police that White-Green was her boyfriend and the person who shot Journet. Investigators say the slaying occurred at the Frontier Inn Hotel and that the motive was linked to White-Green’s relationship with an ex-girlfriend who was reportedly dating Journet.

Anyone who has information about the shooting is asked to contact the Houston Police Department’s Homicide Division.
